[edit] Srul Bronshtein

Delete. Possible, wrong information. No any info in Internet: Google, Yahoo!, Ask.com.--Paukrus 22:59, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

• I am being stalked by user Paukrus: he marked this very article (and several others) in Russian for deletion citing only the fact that "this poet is of Jewish descent". There are sources cited in the article entry, including two web sources: in McGill University Library [1] and in Harvard University library (his book Moldove, mayn heym is under Brunstein, S. [2]; his biographical data are in the Lexicon of Modern Yiddish Literature, the whole chapter 6 in Yiddish writer I. Shraybman's book "Seven Years and Seven Months" (cited in main entry on the poet) is about Bronshtein; there's an entry in S. Spitalnik's book "Bessarabian style" (cited in the main entry, too).--SimulacrumDP 23:15, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

  It's slander. :( No any national difference to me! IMHO, This Article must be delete because There's no any information in Internet.--Paukrus 23:35, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

• keep has citations, has publications.--Buridan 14:00, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
• keep per bur, also not buying into unsubstantiated allegations (they can be linked here even tho they're in russian), but have to query good faith of nomination: assume "wrong info" means potential innacuracies, definitely not grounds for deletion, same for no info on internet (quite apart from the fact that a russian-speaker shld be well aware of probs w/ searching for transliterations of non-roman script surnames)   ⇒ bsnowball  14:43, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Judaism-related deletions. --   ⇒ bsnowball  14:46, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Removed. Has got nothing to do with Judaism. - crz crztalk 17:39, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
    • That board is not restricted to religious topics, it is effectively "Judaism and Jews". Given that he was a Yiddish-language writer, I think it should have remained there. - Jmabel | Talk 01:45, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Using google to try to look for a pre-war Yiddish poet is not intelligent (an understatement). - crz crztalk 16:19, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. User:Paukrus seems to be abusing non-notability notion. Valters 21:52, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Internet info is not required to establish notability, and historical events and figures represent common examples of notability without google listings. The publications cited appear to meet WP:N --Shirahadasha 22:01, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Despite our modern reliance on the internet, it is not the "be-all and end-all" of notability. Sufficient references to paper sources show notability. -- Chabuk ^{[ T • C ]} 22:15, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, at least at this time: no reason to doubt the cited sources. - Jmabel | Talk 01:44, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per above. ←Humus sapiens ^ну? 11:25, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. There's little information about the Yiddish literature on the internet -- I don't think the number of google hits is a good indicator in this case. bogdan 20:06, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, since when is the internet the indicator of notability? VaclavHav 00:15, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep seems subject is notable and sources are there. ← ANAS ^Talk? 15:30, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
